I just know in my bones there’ll be a Nars Orgasm in mine somewhere. Not today though, today was soap.

That’s the brand Sali Hughes often shills, I believe. It looks nice though!

The soap looks lovely, Pip. That fragrance is right up my street.

I love the Soap Co! It employs blind/partially sighted people so it’s close to my heart. I use the rhubarb and geranium as my spring soap and really do like it.

The story behind it is really nice. I’m using a sea salt soap from Australia at the moment that was a gift from a visiting librarian.

I’ve switched to soap in the shower. It lasts for ever.

Not when one’s husband leaves the shower running ‘to warm up’ directly over the soap :verm:

Oh, you must do it. It’s the best. Think of what you’ll save on soap :beak:.

I have a few of their soaps and they are so nice! I was in tentative talks to work with them if we moved back to the UK as they are doing a lot of work with getting people with invisible disabilities (eg dyspraxia) back to work too. It’s not for this thread but it’s an area I’m really keen to get into because of T.

Back on tangent: Edith has already covered off ours and I tried it this morning and it’s def a bit too floral for me at first sniff but I’ll see how it develops.

I did try the oil this morning and whilst I like the texture and it goes on really nicely I really dislike the smell.

I’m really pleased with the M&S one today. A cleanser!

That looks nice!

Mine for today is this serum for lips. I can’t say I’d ever have bought it, but will happily give it a whirl!

I really fancy trying that cleanser. Lip serum sounds interesting too.

I got a This Works pillow spray. I’m happy to see if it helps me sleep. I think I’ve bought it as a gift before but not sure I’ve used it myself.

I hear really good things about that. Also magnesium.

I’m always debating whether to buy that pillow spray.

That looks good, Lola I’ve never tried any Alpha H stuff and is a lip serum the same as a lip balm? It looks nice though and I’d happily give it a bash.

Eye cream for Edith and I today. I like Dermalogica but last years eye stuff is still going strong.

I don’t see any lavender on the ingredients either!

Is it a repeat?

I think the lip serum is completely pointless. Probably for wrinkles around the mouth?

The Dermalogica? No, last years was the Aurelia eye dew which I actually really like but have barely made a dent in it despite using it daily.
